A DDOS attack is a bought service which includes the usage of a pre-existing infected PCs which is called a botnet. Botnet rentals for DDOS attacks are cheap these days and you do not have to be tech-savvy to set it up. For the sake of a simple explanation, it is simply a person with extra money to burn and who is throwing it at some of the more popular botnet services in order to annoy us.

I would, however, highly suggest that you refrain from pinning the blame on the recently banned individuals, because it is quite obvious that these people are hoping to return and such a move from their side would be counterproductive. It is most likely a member who has seen the recent drama on the forums and decided to throw oil in the fire for their lulz.

My earlier statement remains, just do not give them the attention they are trying to coax from the community. We get DDOSed every couple of months, it really is not a big deal as it once was.
